Fortnite Korra is the latest playable character to be added to the game via the Battle Pass, and you can now unlock them along with a selection of Avatar-themed cosmetics by working your way through their challenges. We've been expecting Korra since the beginning of Fortnite Season 2 in Chapter 5, as they feature as one of the main rewards in the Battle Pass menu, and they have their own section where you can preview the cosmetic items available to unlock. If you'd like to upgrade your locker with the latest gear, then here's how to unlock Korra in Fortnite and earn all of the Avatar rewards.

To unlock Fortnite Korra and their related cosmetic items, there are a couple of sets of Fortnite quests to complete that are themed around Waterbending, agility, and teamwork. These are shown under the Quests tab, and you'll need to complete at least four of the tasks from Page 1 before you can start earning progress towards the Page 2 assignments.

Fortnite Korra has also introduced a new weapon to the battle royale, in the form of the Waterbending technique. Although you'll have to look for this Mythic as random floor loot or chest drop, once you have it equipped you can use it to fire up to 30 sharp frozen projectiles at opponents, then you can recharge it by jumping into water while also being able to swim faster and have your Health steadily recover back to 100.
